Abstract :

 Thespesia populnea, usually known as the Portia Tree is a small tree or plant and it belongs to mallow family, Malvaceae. It grows in the wide range of soil types that may be present in coastal environments, counting soils derived from, limestone, quartz and basalt and favors neutral soils (pH of 6–7.4). The green synthesis of metal nanoparticles is an exciting subject of nanoscience. Moreover, of latest concern is the biosynthesis of metal nanoparticles using plants for the large–scale biosynthesis. Nanoparticles formed by plants are more stable and more diverse in shape and size in comparison with those produced by further organisms. Out of all other Metal nanoparticles zinc oxide nanoparticles are most important, as these are used in biomedical, gas sensors, Biosensors, cosmetics, agriculture and drug–delivery etc. Zinc acetate as used to synthesis the zinc Nanoparticles by using leaf extract of Thespesia populnea. The optical characterization was carried out using UV – Vis and FT – IR analysis.
